What is LibSignPDF?

LibSignPDF is a library to create signature annotation on PDF.

LibSignPDF provides a signature annotation for invisible signature and visible signature. This library also support PAdES signature and multiple signature. This library not provide CMS. The CMS havee to provide in another system.

Requirements

To build LibSignPDF lib you'll need:

• qpdf

Development quickstart

LibSignPDF can be used on various operating systems because it is compiled into binary code that can be executed directly by the machine. LibSignPDF is created using the rust programming language which is then compiled into a shared library.

Warning: LibSignPDF is known to be working in cross-compilation toolchains (eg. MacOS/Linux/Windows) but in usage still need qpdf package because the qpdf is not static linking when it compiled.

Install package

From the composer project run:

composer require kampak/libsignpdf

Example usage

This is an example code to use LibSignPDF library

use Kampak\LibSignPDF\SignPDF;

// This is the parameters that you need for generating CMS
$options = [
    'email' => "test@libsignpdf.com",
    'password' => "P@ssw0rd"
];

function signDigestFunction($digest, $options = []) {

    // START YOUR CODE
    // Please insert your code to get cms by sign the digest
    $yourCMS = "get_your_cms_from_your_server_by_sign_the_digest";

    // END YOUR CODE
    $buffer = FFI::new("char[" . (strlen($yourCMS) + 1) . "]", false);
    FFI::memcpy($buffer, $yourCMS, strlen($yourCMS));
    $buffer[strlen($yourCMS)] = "\0";
    $response = FFI::new("char *", false);
    $response = FFI::addr($buffer[0]);
    return $response;
}

// Create an instance of PDFSigner
$signer = new SignPDF("signDigestFunction", $options);

// Sign the PDF
$inputFile = "your_input_pdf_path";
$outputFile = "your_output_pdf_path";
$visualizationFile = "your_image_visualization_path";

$signer->signPDF(
    $inputFile, // input file
    $outputFile, // output file
    $visualizationFile, // visualization file
    "https://example.com", // url for QRCode
    1, // page will be place the signature
    1, // isPades signature
    0, // type od signature (0 for invisible, 1 for visible image)
    100.0, // x position on pdf for place visualization of signature (start on bottom left)
    200.0, // y position on pdf for place visualization of signature (start on bottom left)
    300.0, // width of visualization for place signature (start on bottom left)
    400.0 // height of visualization for place signature (start on bottom left)
);
